    Dismissed players rejoining the same party

    Suggestion:

    Don't allow players that were recently dismissed/kicked from a party in a duty to be able to rejoin that same party. They voted to be dismissed for a reason, so why are they allowed to rejoin that very same party?



    Without going into details I was recently verbally harassed in a low level haukke manor dungeon while leveling. Despite the person being dismissed by a majority vote, they continued to harass me by purposely requeueing for specifically haukke manor in progress as a healer to jump right back in. Unfortunately there's a 4 hour time limit on being able to vote. So another party dismissed them again. Only that same person joined only seconds later again. Eventually I had to drop group because this person would not leave and would continue to come back. I even got the leaving penalty. But I think it's a broken system that someone who was kicked from a party can rejoin that very same party.

    You may want to report him because he were harassing you and on top of that, he were abusing of a system feature in order to do that.

    Abusing of a system feature in order to accomplish things against the ToS is a given account suspension and on some cases may lead to a permanent ban.

    He may be abusing the system, but I know of MANY times in which players will abuse vote kick. Fixing one side of the argument without addressing both problems will just make matters worse.

    Indeed. I had a great time when someone decided to abuse the voting system against me, and I instantly rejoined that same group.

    This happened to me, I did a report and a GM responded in like 5 minutes to permanently remove them from the instance due to them keep rejoining and not actually doing any actions. (They acted like they were on strike due to us kicking them for abusing us). 1 min later a replacement healer joined that wasn't the person being kicked.

    Adding to this post, another smart move would've been to wait like 5-10 minutes or so before looking for another healer.

    Theres a fix for OP's situation. Upon kicking a virulent player, the leader should wait 2min-4mins before hitting "find new members" that way, the troll will be put in another dungeon.

    In the cases of OP, its usuallya tank or healer rejoining over and over again. Since both those roles tend to be in high demand, if you wait 2min-4mins before finding new members, theres a very good chance that troll will be placed with another group.

    The solution is there, people just need to know about it, spread the word.

    To which I respond, I shouldn't need to waste 5 minutes on a workaround to prevent a player from circumventing the vote kick system.

    Now all we need to do is find an effective way to deter and penalize all of the vote kick abuses. As big of an issue, to say the least...
